So you're going to try fuel injection? I did it with my '72 Maverick and I am very happy with the result, but it sure was a pain getting it set up properly. If you need any help with it, let me know. Good luck.

: T.L. your right again. The only thing you left out is that all of the manufactures will recomend the right carb for your specific set up if you call them, they will even give you the right jetting for the carb. The Edelbrock is what I would recomend. Personaly I'm going to 5.0L fuel injection on my 302. More options for better milage and performance.
: : The Edelbrock is nothing more than a modified Carter. Assuming all three carbs have the same cfm rating, they're all going to flow the same amount of air/fuel. I have experienced that the Holley provides better throttle response but will give you more headaches because of high maintainence. The Edelbrock should give you a lot less problems...

: : : Does any one know how Carter Holley and Edelbrock compare with each other? I would appreciate facts preferably from dyno tests of the same cfm carbuerators. If any one would like to give an oppinion I will of course appreciate any helpful information I can get.Im the one planning to put the 351 Windsor in my Maverick. I already have a intake, it is a Offenhauser 360 degree with divided plenum and with a slight chamfer in the plenum.
